Answer:

The correct answer is $257,500(not one of the multiple choices)

Step-by-step explanation:

The costs of good sold =opening inventory+costs of goods manufactured-closing inventory

opening inventory is worth is $54,000

costs of goods manufactured is $248,600

closing inventory is n $49,500

costs of goods sold=$54,000+$248,600-$49,500=$ 253,100.00

However overhead was under-applied by $4400 ($81400-$77,000) which must be added to costs of goods sold ,hence the corrected costs of goods sold is $257,500($253,100+$4,400)

This is not one of the options
